About this episode

Brad Halferty discusses how he implemented AI tools to significantly improve his contracting business's lead generation and sales processes.

Most people talking about AI for contractors are still at the theory stage. Brad Halferty skipped that and built the whole system. He runs a home improvement business across 4 states and 11 markets, and over the last six months, he deployed a stack of AI tools for contractors that replaced his SEO agency, cut his PPC company, and automated his after-hours calls, unsold lead follow-up, and Google Ads bidding.
